Stephellaneous Beginnings

Write. Just fucking do it. Write something. Then click that big blue button with the shiny white letters telling you to Publish. Something. Anything. It took a fucking year to get over the whole “what the hell would I even name a blog” paralysis. I realize now that was about far more than not being able to come up with a semi-original name.

Anyway. Some points about me and what to expect if you stick around:

I curse. Sometimes a lot. And my favorite swear word is “fuck.” I use it as just about any part of speech and even as prefixes and suffixes. You’ve been warned.

This blog will serve as a pressure valve to release the noise in my brain. That said, the topics will be many and varied. At least I think they will. That all depends on the noise. This also explains the title. Stephellaneous. Stephanie + Miscellaneous = I don’t have to explain this. Why am I explaining this. You’re smart, and you totally get it. Anyway. Books, movies, news, personal ranting or musing, music. It’s all fair game to me.

I like parentheticals (a lot). And I love hyperbole. I love it so much I want to marry it and have luaus on Saturn.

I tend toward perfectionism and am often too hard on myself. I will endeavor to just write. Something. Anything. Regularly. Because I need an outlet. Though I hope to eventually have a small community of friends here, my main goal right now is to consistently get my thoughts out as a form of catharsis and belonging. Because even if no one is reading this, it still makes me feel as though I’m at least (a teensy) part of something.

Yeah, I think that’s all of the intro I need. I’ll just dive right in soon. Perhaps even today. We’ll see.

I am SO sorry I didn’t see this. I just checked my comments through the Admin settings and found this in Spam! I have no idea why, because I have my settings to allow links. I’ll look at that right now – a thousand years late!

Hi Steph, Thank you for the lovely comment you left on my bubble and sqeak recipe. I actully posted that recipe accidently before I’d finished editing it and so had to remove it from my blog I’m afraid. I have now finished the recipe and reposted if you want to take another look.

Somehow this post came to the top of my stacks today, and I’m glad for it. 🙂 Today’s a day to purge emails but I am taking breaks when I want to see something in more detail, and I’m glad I did. I love your writing. Well done!
